Some close to the couple think so!

As everyone knows, Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder ended their three year relationship recently. Though many were surprised, some close to The Vampire Diaries couple were not! A source dishes to USWeekly:

“There was no mean spiritedness behind of either of their motives” for ending their three-year relationship, the source explains. CW stars Dobrev, 24, and Somerhalder, 34, went public with their romance back in 2011 and “will continue to work together and remain best friends. The relationship kind of brewed out of a friendship and the fact that they had to get into a romance for the show,” the first insider explains, adding that the breakup “was inevitable.”

Hmm, that’s not a lot of info, source!

The ten-year age gap may have also played a role, the same source says. “I think she decided she wanted to experience other things.”

THAT makes a bit more sense.  THOUGHTS?!

Chris Brown flirted with disaster yesterday!

The singer’s private jet was forced into an emergency landing yesterday at the Burbank International Airport after the cockpit filled with smoke after takeoff! Yikes.  TMZ confirms that Brown got on the jet in Burbank headed for the Met Gala, but roughly 7 to 8 minutes into the flight, everyone on board began to notice that the plane was much smokier than it should be!

One source told TMZ, “It was A LOT of smoke … everywhere.”

The pilot immediately turned the plane around and performed an emergency landing back in California. The passengers, of course, were freaked but the pilot was collected and handled the situation like a pro!

And hey, you hire a private jet, you should get a pro flying it!

Brown eventually made it to Teterboro, boarding another jet soon after the first touched down. He may have really wanted to make the Met Gala event, but missed it due to all this private jet switching. Fortunately for him, he made the after-party. And to Brown, that’s probably all that mattered. CHEERS!

We all know and love actress Carey Mulligan for her signature blonde pixie cut, but, as time is wont to do, she’s changing it up!

It’s an adjustment for sure, because I think Carey’s short hair is super adorable. Still, I can’t fault her for going for a change. Find out Carey’s new do post-Great Gatsby after the jump!

Okay, we’ve all seen Liam Hemsworth being photographed at that party with January Jones, AND heard about how his relationship with Miley Cyrus is reportedly on the rocks. BUT- is Liam really dating January? And Is Miley really not pissed about all that Jan Jones press?

Here’s an excerpt from The Star that may just be rumor, but even if it’s a little true, DANG!

Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth’s relationship has been hanging by a tread lately, and the engaged couple are in for a whole new wave of drama — because Liam, 23, is secretly dating January Jones! After being the first to reveal the pair’s secret hookup in February after being spotted leaving a pre-Oscars party together, Star has now learned that Liam’s dalliance with January, 35, has turned into a full-blown relationship!

According to an inside source, the Hunger Games actor has become a fixture at January’s L.A. home in recent weeks. “Liam is at January’s house all the time,” says the insider. “He brings her favorite wine, and they hook up. They have date nights in — they never go out, because they want to keep it a secret.”

Although Miley, 20, is fully aware of Liam’s rendezvous with January, she is apparently refusing to break up with him; she’s praying it’s just a phase and that he’ll come to his senses. “She’s in denial,” continues the source. “She is desperate to marry Liam and make the relationship work.”

But while the “Ashtrays and Heartbreaks” singer may still be fantasizing about a wedding, Liam and January have developed strong feelings for each other. “Liam is interested in seeing where the relationship can go,” spills the pal. “January is doing her best to keep Liam around.” With Miley’s dad, Billy Ray, recently referring to his daughter and Liam as “really good friends,” the odds look like they are ever in January’s favor!

Yep.  For real. You heard right.

Chris Brown turns 24 on May 5th, but that’s ALSO the date Rihanna is expected for perform the Brooklyn leg of her Diamonds World Tour in NYC! So, what does any insanely doting- almost to the point of actual INSANITY-kinda on-again, off-again girlfriend do for her man when she’s an international pop star? Why, cancel the show, of course!

Right?

Insiders reveal that Riri was super appreciative of what he did for her birthday in February that she’s willing to work her schedule into overdrive to reciprocate the favor.

Sources explain (via PerezHilton):

“Chris treated her so bomb and surprised her with his presence when she turned 25, she wants to be with him badly when he turns 24. She’s not going to flat out ask him to be with her — not on his birthday because she feels that’s his day — but in her heart she wants him with her. It’s a surprise. All I can say is she’s got a few things up her sleeve. She wants Chris to know how much she loves him and wants him and honestly, she just wants to be with him and let him know she’s got his back.”

So…pretty much all he did was SURPRISE RIHANNA WITH HIS PRESENCE?!  Man, sounds like Rihanna is easily impressed and majorly diluded. And now she’s planning a whole thing and letting a show get all cancelled? Ugh, dis-gus-ting.
